I placed the Queen on the base of a "Dweller in the Dark". I cut the upper step of this base and added some more tiles on its floor. Finally, I did a little research on the internet and found photos of a Mexican red-kneed tarantula to use as a model for my Queen's painting scheme. Below you can see the results:
